Dangers of the job!

Carmans appren. with the Army? WOW! That's an odd way of doing things. Never thought about that route. He he he.

My Dad was an engineer with the LIRR. I went to go that route, but we had a talk. So I stayed as a cleaner (Coach) and waited. He told me it would be great for me, knowing me, he was dead balls on right. A deal with the union and carrier has coach cleaners going up to carmen automaticaly based on your time on the job.

I left the shops awhile back and now work local in a yard midnight inspecting testing repairing and taking cars out of service. Not a bad gig. Close to home.

I worked Desil for about 3 years in NYC and then went to class for the MU's. Been inspecting about a decade now.
